A photocopy of the Ticket of Leave stub for your convict, showing name, sentence and ship and often marital status, physical characteristics and other details.

After a convict had been in the Colony for a few years he/she could apply for a ticket of leave. This enabled him to work for himself rather than for the government or an assigned employer as long as he stayed within the prescribed district.

The ticket of leave contained details such as crime, sentence and physical characteristics and had to be shown on demand. The stub is the duplicate that remained with the authorities and was often updated if the ticket was rescinded. Rare before 1810.

A photocopy of the ticket of leave stub for your convict will be supplied.

Price is reduced if the reference number is supplied.
